    I voted Hatton-Pac but Diaz-JMM was almost as impressive. For me you chose the wrong question just to show how great is Pac :)

    You miss alot of points. Casa was not moving up in weight when he fought Marquez.

    Yes Casa look like crap vs Cruz but again it's cause HE HAD AN OVER A YEAR LAYOFF!!! <<<<<<<Most fighters will have a big time ring rust.

    Yea he struggle vs Katsidis but most fighters past prime or not would have problems with Katisidis style. But Casamayer still won the fight by tko in an exciting fight in which even though Katsidis knockdown Casa, Casa answer back with 4 or 5 knockdowns in which went to a tko win.


    So what that Hatton tko Paulie that Cotto couldn't do. Whats the point? If you know your facts you'll know Cotto was killing himself to make weight prior to facing Paulie ( In which That was Cotto last fight at junior welterweight). If Cotto wasn't weight drain, he'll tko Paulie faster then Hatton did.


    Cool that Pacquiao ko Hattin in 2 rounds but prior to that, Hatton had struggles with feather fisted Collazo in which Hatton barely survive. Hatton lost his first fight to Mayweather by tko. Hatton struggle vs a lightweight Lazcano. And even struggle vs Urango.


    Oh and age don't mean nothing that much cause look at fighters like Morales and Vargas. Didn't Vargas retired at 29? Morales was still young when he retired. Now Hatton might retired and he's 30.

    You just need to remember Pauli's head after the Cotto fight hahah. He took alot worst beating in this match than in the Hatton fight. Just in the Hatton fight the corner speared him the punishment

    I meant Marquez was moving up in weight not Casamayor. I meant that as a credit to JMM not a put down.

    Still Casamayor didn't had almost anything left in him, he lost to Santa Cruz(robbed him) and was getting hammered against the limited Katsidis(before the ko). And he was still giving JMM a tough fight though.

    Pac-Hatton is the obvious choice for the simple fact that Pac completely destroyed him in a way that no one thought possible. However I feel that Hatton was overrated and that Casa was a better fighter than he was. If you switched the oppenents and had Pac-Casa and JMM-Hatton I assure you the results would be the same in that Casa and Hatton would both be KO'd. However, Pac would have KO'd Casa faster than JMM did and Hatton would have lasted longer against JMM. JMM would probably KO him in the
    later rounds as he did Diaz. The thing is though, Pac is a fast starting fighter that does go for KO's. JMM is patient and slow starter who studies his opponent and boxes them until he sees his chance open up and he takes it. So all in all it's hard to say who is better between Pac and JMM because their styles are completely different.

    Well the fact that there is only like 1 or 2 rounds seperating them after 2 fights shows that they are just about even. You could really make an arugment for either guy IMO they have different styles but overall are as even as 2 fighters can get.

    Pacs' win over Hatton was more impressive simply because Pac took him out in 2 rounds. I picked MP to win but not in 2 rounds.

    Pacquiao-Hatton, and it's not really all that close. Just a dominant, brutal performance.

    yeah, it annoys me that whenever Pac gets a big win, JMM's stock goes up but when JMM gets a big win, Pac's stock doesnt budge.

    Isn't that ironic?

    Back to reality, I'm a big Marquez fan but there's no justifying the win over Casa was bigger than Pac/Hatton...especially taking into account the ease with which he beat Hatton...
